+Universal component to render any icon. It can render:
+
+- A Vue component icon like `vue-material-design-icons/Account.vue`
+- An SVG icon like `@mdi/svg/svg/account.svg`
+- A path icon like `@mdi/js/account.js`
+- An URL icon like `https://path/to/icon.svg` or `data:image/svg+xml;base64,...`
+- A class icon like `icon-account` (not recommended)
+
+Using this component, you can develop a component with a single `icon`` prop and `#icon` slot to support all types of icons.
+
+```vue
+<script>
+import IconAccountComp from 'vue-material-design-icons/Account.vue'
+import IconAccountSvg from '@mdi/svg/svg/account.svg?raw'
+import { mdiAccount } from '@mdi/js'

+export default {
+  setup() {
+    return { IconAccountComp, IconAccountSvg, mdiAccount }
+  },

+
+<template>
+    <div>
+        <NcIcon :icon="IconAccountComp" />

+        <NcIcon :icon="mdiAccount" />
